Be it lrnown that l lthiifrnn livnnn'rr Meines7 a citizen ot the vUnited States7 residing; at Berlin, in the county ot Coos and 5 @tate ot New Harnpshire.,` hfye intenti-id a new and uset'ul Hohl/Vater lili-uiting: System, ot which the following); is a speeiiieation.

This invention relates to hot water heat ing;` systems for use eonneetion with herosene stovesv and more particularly to lrerosone oooh stoves.

The object ot the invention to provide a hot water heating' system :For use with kerosene stoves so constructed that the iro-- ter will be heated by the same burner which eoolrs the toed Without in any way interifei-- ing With the cookingu operation.

Another object is to provide a funnel oapper pipe tor use in connection with a hot VWater heating heater oit this cliaracter Whieh is constructed so as to permit the tunnel to be easily removed to ait'ord access to the burner tor cleaning;y and other purposes without interiferinol with the heut g eoils and lWithout requiring.;y any tusteners.

W ith the toregelng1 and other objects in View which 'will appear the description proceeds, the invention resides in the eoinbination and arrangement oit parts and in the details ot construction hereinafter de scribed and claimech it being' understood that changes in the precise embodiment oit the invention herein disclosed may be made Within the scope of what is claimed without depart-ingl from the spirit oit the invention.

ln the aocornp:ftnyingl drawings?-w lfigure fl represents a side elevation oit a `kerosene cook stove in eonneetion with this improved Water heating* system,

Fig. 2 is a vertical section tlirolurh onel ot the capper pipes used on the lauriers ot' an oil stove, with the Water heating coil shown in elevation therein.

llig. 3 is top plan View thereot, and

Fig. t is a rear elevation thereof.

ln the embodiment illustrated, a kerosene coolr stove S is shown equipped With the usual burners Ba any desired number of which may be employedq three being; here showin Each of the burners B is surmounted by a tunnel eapper pipe 1 such as is ordinarily used with burnersot' this charaeter.) the only difference being that the capper used in connection with this system is split longitudi ually tromv end to `end preferably at an loblique angle as shown at 2 and the walls ot this split portion have registering recesses to provide passages 3 and et tor the inlet and outlet portions ot the heating coil 5. This coil 5 which is mounted in the pipe l preferably helical in term with the larger end disposed at the bottom and connected at its upper and lower ends by unions la and 8 with supply and return pipes 'Y and 9 respectively7 which lead to a boiler 6. The supply pipe 7 extends into the bottom ot the boiler while the return pipe i9 which taires the hot Water to the boiler opens through the top thereof as is ordinary in boilers ot this character. il. hot water pipe l0 leads troni the top ot the boiler@ il'or conducting the Water to the bath or sink or any other point Where it is to be used.

it. drain Coeli; ll is shown Connected with the supply pipe Y at the lower portion there ot so as to drain the boiler when desired. ',llhe capper pipes l are each provided at their liront 'rares with a door l2 to afford access to the burner tor light; p and the rllhese capperpipes l are a provided heir upper ends with the usual annular covers la wliieh assist in retaining the pipes inst separatingj` which might otherwise oeeur owing` to the longitudinal splitting; thereoit to taeilitate its removal 'from the burner which is desirable :tor cleaning and other piirposes. 'llo remove. this pipe l With" out in any Way atlieetinn the heatingl coil the rover l" is detached and the pipe l. spread or expanded sutlieiently to disengage the seats and et thereof from the up per and lower ends ot the coil 5, thereby pormitting` the ea) to be readily removed. To replace it7 the operation above descrioed is ref'ersed.

From the above description it will be obvious th at a stove equipped with this heating system will, when the burners are lit, infiinediately heat the Water flowing through the coils 5 in a manner well known in systems ot this character and yet may be used for cooking; food in the ordinary Way so that when a burner is lit for cooking; the Water in the coil surrounding; it is immediately heated and tion/e into .boiler e ready tor use when desired.

.l system ot this eharaeter constructed as herein shown and described is simple and cheap to manufacture and may he applied to any kerosene stove hy simply providing split portion to form south4 l'm- Ihc ulci :nul outlet portions of the coilsT :1min flungwi annular covo'l lifting over thc oppor' uml of" said cappei pipe to retain it ngunst upm ing und to permit the free menage ot' honi.

In testimony that ,I claim the I'orcgmug as my own7 l have hoi'cto ui'lxwl my signutu-re i-ny the` presence oi' two it-nessus.
